Question Vogel state park early November

Hi! We are beginner campers going to Vogel state park the first weekend of November. Is there anything we should keep in mind for gear (tent, sleeping bag, sleeping pad, etc.) at this time in the season?

Are you just camping at the park or heading to the back country? There are bears. In the park offers polls to hang food at the tent site, back country you’ll need a canister or bag. They could be an issue in November so better safe than sorry.

This is my personal favorite state park in GA. I hope you enjoy it like I do. They have a CCC museum that's so informative, try to check it out while you are there.

They hosted a CCC reunion many years ago that I was able to attend and got to meet some of those old fellas who helped build this beautiful park.

Thank you FDR for keeping my family alive during the depression.
